Confirmed from Donigian Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Public outdoor space along the Woonasquatucket River known for its bike path and soccer field.
What runners say about Donigian Park
“Beautiful bike/walking path w/ bridge along river, open field and a turf soccer field as well as basketball court.”
This place is just the best around the area, many people come for the sports, others to play with the kids; me personally i come to relax and read my books and just hear the water running down the river!! 💎
A very nice, relaxing park to come to for some peace and quiet. The Woonasquatucket River runs right next to it and provides some great views. There are often a lot of geese and ducks around the park, which is nice except for the fact that their poop is everywhere. Not much you can do about that though.
Plenty of parking. Nice view of the pond or whatever body of water it is. There’s a waterfall that gives a nice breeze. Trail isn’t that long though maybe .25 of a mile. You start off in the wooded area and then make your way to an open playground and field.
